Butsu-Zone

A manga about the 1000 hands Senju who must protect a young girl who is the reincarnation of Gautama Buddha and help her reach enlightenment.

This is the debut work of Hiroyuki Takei, who is most well known for his ultra popular Shaman King series. Although Butsu-Zone ended early, you can see hints of motifs and designs that Takei would eventually use in his future projects. Even the popular character Anna Kyoyama was originally used in this book and some of the mech-like armor designs would be used in Takei’s Jumbor series.

It’s an interesting manga to see where Takei started.
